Seat Ibiza Gti - Ready to mod

[sjordanGTI]

Hi guys,

I'm just putting together a list of parts I should put to my GTi, I want to get the most out of this brilliant car.

I am still on my Probationary Licence, so engine modifications are not an option at this point in time.

Here is what I have on my list so far:

Brembo Brakes - $1200
Brembo SEAT | Euro Car Parts UK

Lightweight Flywheel -

Headlights Angel Eyes - ?
Anyone know of any decent headlights? I can't seem to find any!

Projector Fog Lights - $49
Auto Platonium :: Lighting :: Projector Fog/Driving Lights

Rims

Springs - $75
Seat Buy suspension from Eibach including adjustable suspension and automotive coil springs.

Mk3 Cupra Cat-Back Exhaust system - $380
Awesome - Milltek cat-back exhaust for Ibiza Mk3 Cupra Sport 1.8T

Red stitch Boot - $15
VW GOLF MK3 JETTA SHIFT BOOT BLACK LEATHER RED STITCH | eBay

GTI Badge - $15
Awesome - Golf GTI "Red I" Rear Badge

What do you guys think? Is there anything else I should look into or change?

Nice list...

Hi highly recommend the springs for sure. I just got these fitted to my Ibiza... you cant go wrong at that price.

Rims... See if you can contact Lewis (Username LWR) on this site if you are interested in some Euro style wheels. I got my Remotecs from him. Brilliant.

You might want to confirm the AUD$ amounts of the brakes and the badge those site are listing the price in GBP (Pounds). You will ned to multiply those amounts by roughly 1.6 and add shipping.

yeh, those brakes are gonna set you back $2000 + shipping, so you will be looking at approx $2500.

Why not just upgrade to a set of drilled/slotted rotors, paint up your callipers and put some decent pads in (Hawks, EBC, etc). This option will cost a fraction of the Brembo setup but will still look pretty sweet and stop better than the standard setup. You can then use the savings to fund the other options on your list.

Also the exhaust is in GBP, so this will be $610 + shipping.

The springs are out of stock! Not really surprised at that price!

Rims... See if you can contact Lewis (Username LWR) on this site if you are interested in some Euro style wheels. I got my Remotecs from him. Brilliant.

Not by any chance you can post a picture of those rims on your ibiza assuming you drive one?

I did find I nice set of headlights, I jumped on photoshop and played about. This is what I came up with.



I agree with the brakes.

No paint at all yet. I just did a cut and polish on the bonnet and that came out pretty good. I just keep it polished and it's fine. The roof is still faded, I have sanded off the last of the clear coat then cut abd polished it up. Even though it helped it's still quite bad, just shiney. But I have some black wrap on the way!

Yeah. The back will be smoothed off too. Should be sweet!

Where are you? I'll take them off your hands and save you from the epic amount of hassles with ebay! I'll give you $250 and I'll come pick them up if you are in either Melbourne or Sydney!


I'm glad you said that because I was going to grab a set of Spax coilovers... I'll take a look at some Weitecs.

Sorry mate in bris, if you can sort postage its a done deal.

I have hot tuning in my cupra, & as has already been said you can go as low as you like but they are very harsh. My wife hates being in the ibiza now (spoilt by the golf) & most friends who ride in it call it the go cart for the way it rides & handles. It's my daily & I love it but i'm starting to think I'm getting a little old for it.
